I don’t think I could name a Big Sean song if my life depended on it. I freely admit it. But, he DID host a sold-out show…
So with that in mind, and without further ado, peep the photos after the jump…

Very cool stuff. 
Ms. Shay Star and I have only just met, but she’s been super-supportive of my movement, & it’s only right & fair that I support hers as well. Besides, lady hustlers are hard to come by…everyone’s either a “model” or a groupie…so it’s NICE to see someone who has a similar work ethic.
Check out Shay online at http://www.shaystar.com — follow her on Twitter at @IamShayStar — and check out my story here:

The Red Bull Music Academy was pleased to present G-Unit rapper Lloyd Banks & “The Infamous” Mobb Deep live in concert at Webster Hall in New York City.
The goal of this performance was an attempt to bring back “the good ol’days” of hip-hop, when it was all about cyphers & Mr. Magic…and the show, of course, did not disappoint.
Banks performed the greatest hits off of his classic albums, Hunger for More and Hunger for More 2, as well as some mixtape favorites (including “Fly in the Wind” & “Love Me In the Hood.”)
For their part, Mobb Deep performed the greatest hits off of their classic album, The Infamous. Also in attendance were 40 Glocc, Slowbucks TV, and Trav.

Because I don’t just photograph rappers…
Last night, I had the opportunity to photograph Marc Anthony at the Izod Center at the Meadowlands Arena in Rutherford, NJ. Though I hate NJ with the intensity of a thousand burning suns, it was nice to get to shoot Marc Anthony live — he’s very energetic & passionate, and I dare say that his Spanish-language songs are far superior to his English-language songs.
In case anyone cares about this sort of thing: no sign of either J-Lo or Jada Pinkett Smith. Do with that what you will.
Peep some of my pics after the jump…

The good news: People Magazine used my photo of Prodigy of Mobb Deep at the Best Buy Theatre in NYC. And they credited me…PROPERLY!
The bad news: They credited Prodigy as Ghostface Killa of the Wu-Tang Clan. SMH.
Peep the tear sheet here:
Ordinarily, I stay behind the scenes & let my clients do the talking. However, if there’s a legitimate opportunity to impart knowledge — especially if it means that someone can learn even one thing from me — I’ll take it.
So, to that end, I will be live on the air on 2Raw4TV Radio on Thursday, July 21st, at 11pm EST. I’ll be discussing how to overcome adversity in the entertainment industry, my experiences as a legitimate business-woman in the industry, and much more.

*N.B: Many of you have come here as a result of the MusicDish Network. To those of you who have — first, I say, HELLO — and second, note that I have made more photos than usual available for your perusal.*
Once again, I had the honor and the pleasure of photographing Lloyd Banks live. Once again, I am pleased to report that he is a perfect gentleman — a true G in the realest sense of the word — a monster performer — and a living treasure. (This is far from hyperbole — he’s quite a delight & a pleasure…and, dare I say, a King amongst mere mortal men…)
At this point, if you’re sleeping on Lloyd Banks, you don’t know hip-hop.
Anyway, I went with my new junior publicist Venecia Phillips to the Paradise Theater in Bronx, NY (the G-Unit Riderz were also supposed to come…unfortunately, NYC roads aren’t kind to tires…), to watch Lloyd Banks perform at The Bronx Knows Concert for HIV Awareness. We were pleased & delighted to get both press and backstage clearance, so shout-out to Hot 97, the NYC Department of Health, and of course Lloyd Banks for that.
I covered the event for PR Photos (click on the link to see some site exclusive photos), Splash News (click on the link to be directed to the industry site), and — for the first time — made it available to all of the Music Dish wires (which includes 70 links to blog communities, eGroups, PR aggregation sites, micro-blogging platforms & online forums, as well as 30 blogs & 30 additional links to “urban”-type blog communities & online forums…all told, the MusicDish wires will be making these available to a total of 150 GUARANTEED PLACEMENTS…so shout-out to Eric de Fontenay, the MusicDish editor-in-chief, for that hookup).
*IF YOU ARE INTERESTED IN NON-WATERMARKED VERSIONS OF THE PHOTOS, PLEASE SEND ME AN E-MAIL — you can find my info on my CONTACT page. I am more than happy to accommodate you!*
